From the ashes of SLUDGELORD favourites Canaya, step forth a brand new 3 piece conjuring up their own malevolent blend of noise magic. 'With the metallic edge of Mastodon and Gojira, mixed with the punishing tones of High On Fire and Kvelertak', Leeds based Nomasta infuse doom laden thrash amidst bursts of elephantine riffs and dancing time signatures, creating a new blend of sonic brutality for discerning metal fans.

Today at THE SLUDGELORD, it gives us great pleasure to premiere brand new music, in the form of “This Trail Got The Best Of Us'taken from Nomasta'sforthcoming record 'House of the Tiger King', set to be released November 3rd. Owen Wilson (Guitars, vocals) had the following to say about the track, which you can also stream below

“This
Trail Got The Best Of Us' is a real nasty piece of work, in the most metal way!
Musically it is an ode to the extreme music scene I was introduced to when I
moved to Leeds in 2004, and to the friends I
made along the way. Lyrically the song is about understanding how all
things can come to an end. It can take huge amounts of mental strength and
humility to detach from a situation and regardless of our personal investment,
to accept failure and begin starting a fresh can often be the best avenue to
pursue.
